[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 436286, member: 3592"] The only other thing is if yours is a CA fob, make sure your battery is fresh all the time. It's not worth changing your tint just for this, why not try changing your mindset instead. I think of it as something that heightens my security consciousness against carjacking, the main way to steal a BMW. I've had a few friends who've been carjacked of their lux rides and it's not a pleasant experience. All my welcome lights and locking indications are selected as 'off' in iDrive and there's no advance indication it's my car until I'm at the door. Pop the lock, get in and immediately lock from the dash button. Similarly, look or listen to ensure locking before walking away from the car. That's my mindset about this, and I don't think I'm alone. Try it. :) [/QUOTE]
